If you want to blend the excitement of a city break with the peace of a rural retreat, this is the perfect apartment. Located within an hour of London, yet part of a quiet complex, it lets you dictate your trip at your own pace.

If you wanted to explore England's capital, it's a short ride away on the train. You'll reach the hub of London Bridge, a short walk away from the iconic Tower of London. Keep walking along the river and you'll discover the charm of Southbank, a stream of vibrant eating and drinking spots.

For those that prefer a more low-key escape, Dartford is a collection of cosy cafes, welcoming pubs and world-renowned stores. Wander through the town's pretty streets, finding a bargain in the shops or a tasty dish at the many restaurants.

Whether you spend your day in London or Dartford, the tranquil energy of the home refreshes your energy. Sit out on the balcony with a glass of wine, discuss tomorrow's adventure on the dining table or relax on the comfy sofas with a film.
